Apology or Fight Ends in Whopper of a Pickerel
A summer visitor Miss Prue near Aunt Judith’s house is dared by a teen boy to “apologize or fight” a musician guest who teased her. The artist is publicly confronted, but the supposed insult turns out to be a misread tale when the whopper in question is revealed as an old boot. Prue gains a gallant suitor and a light romance unfolds as the town laughs at the mistaken heroics.
